shetland owners

Post by goodevans »

Ahoy there on my trips up and down the river Severn and the Avon I notice there are quite a few Shetlands my question is are there any owners of said boats on here ?

most shetland owners are or were on here or should be on here. I have also not found a none chatting shetland owner and many people who have met on this site now meet up for trips. In Scotland there are a bunch of old members who go out every 2 months but mots now have not be on here for a few years.

I would guess as a Shetland owners site, most people do or did own a Shetland. I have owned 2. This time of year can be a bit quiet on here but come the summer the site buzzes

The reason for me asking is I have made very good friends with some owners through the owners association and spent some very enjoyable days and weekends together but unfortunately due to them buying bigger boats I don't think they will be coming back onto the river Severn or the Avon
